The npm package base64id has seen very infrequent releases. Initial release 0.1.0 was in September 2012. Version 1.0.0 followed in December 2016, and 2.0.0 in May 2019. Since then, there have been no further updates to the package as of September 10, 2025.
base64id generates short, URL-safe, and statistically unique IDs based on Base64 encoding. It's perfect for creating database keys, session IDs, or any scenario needing compact and easily shareable identifiers. The package offers configurable ID lengths and collision-resistant generation, ideal for high-volume environments. Lightweight and dependency-free, base64id is a convenient solution for simplifying ID creation in Node.js and browser-based JavaScript applications.
Base64id npm package downloads show a generally increasing trend from March 2024 to July 2025, peaking at over 35 million. August 2025 saw a decrease, and September 2025 (incomplete data) indicates a significant drop, likely due to the month not being finished.
